Jennifer Hoewe studies how people consume and are influenced by political and news media, including partisan news selection, misinformation sharing, media bias perceptions, and how entertainment media (such as TV shows and video games) shape political attitudes and civic engagement. Her work often examines psychological mechanisms like partisanship, metacognitive effort, and parasocial relationships (feeling connected to media figures) that explain these media effects.
